All Aboard! - Has Sony Gone Off the Rails?

This post was supposed to be a Titanfall review.  However, Call of Mechwarrior has spent the vast majority of my play-time "initializing" (whatever that means), and so I'm left writing you a news post instead.

I'm here to pose a question: What do Amy Hennig, Jack Tretton, and Santa Monica Studios all have in common?  Answer: they were all once much larger parts of the machine that is Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) than they are now.  Something very serious is going down at the gaming giant and one has to wonder: "is Sony going off the rails?"

Next-Gen Garbage: Revisited

So E3 is over.  Now that Sony is done making Microsoft look like an ass and Microsoft is done making Microsoft look like an ass, it seemed like the perfect time to revisit this topic.  I know that I was originally pretty hard on both consoles, but this was also at a time where all we had to look forward to was a new Assassin's Creed, a new Call of Duty, and Watch_Dogs, which is releasing on both current and next-gen platforms.

Now, after press conferences from both MS and Sony, along with two major developers that will be releasing content on both platforms,  I have to say that I've got somewhat of a new outlook on the future of gaming.  That doesn't, however, mean that it's bright.

E3: Abridged - Part IV

So over a week after the fact now, I'm finally getting around to finishing this series.  I'd had plans to complete it earlier, but some personal illness got in the way of that.  Finally getting around to watching the last of the press conference footage and I've got to say that I'm significantly more enthused than I thought I'd be.  Roll up those sleeves.  Bring down the cage.  It's time for the Sony Smackdown.
